Case Study: EntwicklerHeld achieves fast, scalable, cost-efficient cloud migration with Hetzner Cloud

EntwicklerHeld - Customer Case Study

EntwicklerHeld, a coding challenge platform, faced the challenge of finding a cost-effective and performant cloud provider that would allow them to dynamically scale to meet user demand without vendor lock-in. They chose to migrate their infrastructure to the Hetzner Cloud to achieve these goals.

The solution from Hetzner provided a smooth migration with support for tools like Terraform and Ansible, allowing the customer to move 40,000 users in about two man-weeks. The results included a massive reduction in costs to one-tenth of previous providers and a drastic improvement in VM startup times from minutes to under ten seconds. This enabled EntwicklerHeld to scale dynamically and efficiently for each user, improving their product and resource usage.
